Abstract
A battery back-up system providing a short term hold-up for a converter type switched power supply. The back-up system includes a regulated charger circuit for maintaining the battery in a charged condition and a direct current fan which cools the power supply in both the normal and battery back-up modes. Over-voltage protection for the system is provided during the battery back-up mode, and protection for the battery is provided against excessive battery charging voltages. The fan and regulator are automatically turned off when the battery reaches a deep discharge condition to protect the battery.
